"Imagine yourself in a world out of control. From persecution for you and your people to displacement and danger. Around every corner lies death, disease, and crippling poverty. This is the story of Lilly Isaack, her middle-class family, and the 20,000 Jewish refugees who fled the Nazis to Shanghai, China. Shanghai was a completely different world than the one they left, with its own dangers. The refugees faced starvation, disease, bombing, death, and being forced into a ghetto by the Japanese army . This strange city, a mix of east and west, was both a haven and a prison to the refugees. Follow Lily from Berlin to Shanghai, Shanghai to America, and America back to Germany. From six to sixteen, Shanghai was Lilly's home, and her family's salvation. This is a story of survival, with family and community offering the only hope in a world of death and destruction."--Back cover
